Which Way???

[MIKL]

well its not wood, but its also not watch parts

Armor Plates, Red Wire and PET sleeve, cast in resin

this is my second attempt at this blank design, the first didn't make the lathe, the 2nd well its not perfect but well worth the trouble to see how it would look completed

i am not sure which way i prefer the ends... let me know what you all think

thanks for looking

C&C welcome

Looks great! I'd have to say that I personally find the armor plates at the top end (pictures 3 and 4) more appealing. JMHO

Mik! i like it with Armor/red band on the nib end! also looks great.

Looks really nice MIK. Well done

I looked at it several times, and I really can't decide. It looks good both ways.

 

[MIKL]

thanks guys, i can't decide either and its even worse when you put it in your hand

using it the red looks better at the back

on display i think the red looks better at the front

but tomorrow is a new day and that might change the way i think again

all the best

Uncapped, I like the the armor plates at the top. Capped, I prefer them at the bottom. Either way, however, that is a bonzer pen.

Try exoticblanks.com
that looks like a Zap cap or if you like a straight clip a Zen pen.
